LOCATION: Dubai, UAE
USE: Urban & Communities – Residential – Leisure
Scope: FaÇade & Landscape LIGHTING DESIGN
The lighting design masterplan evolved holistically from a general set of lighting design criteria and principles, carefully crafted based on the overall urban and architectural settings, to their pragmatic application on smaller scale layouts. The lighting masterplan provided a comprehensive approach that resulted in a sustainable visual outcome that took into account the project’s diverse aesthetical, functional, and environmental needs.
On a micro-level, indirect linear sources delineate the perimeters of planter boxes and the undersides of benches, resulting in a ‘guiding light’ that visitors can use to navigate the pathways leading to the canal promenade area.
Graphical lighting systems with gobo projectors mounted on the trees were specified for the pathways, creating a one-of-a-kind pedestrian lighting experience.
To highlight the main entrances of the residential buildings, custom-designed recessed luminous tiles were developed. These tiles were also etched with building numbers to help identify entrances and aid in navigation.
